NFS: Shift with the G25

Need for Speed: Shift has full compatibility with the Logitech G25+G27 with combined pedal or separate pedal configurations. Slightly Mad Studios in London have kindly setup some default configurations for some top-end steering wheels, just go into Options > Control Settings and change your control device option to choose whatever wheel you are using. I choose Logitech G25 with separate pedals and each control worked perfectly including the H-Shifter. I found the force feedback to be a little weird but you can change all of settings including dead zones under advanced controls in the options, it's a shame this isn't accessible from the in-game options. You will probably spend a fair amount of time tweaking the controls to suit your driving style which can become a bit tedious with you having to quit out of the race every time a setting needs changing.

The overall experience is good and is much more enjoyable than using a standard Xbox controller or keyboard even though some tweaking is involved.
